[quote name='overwater#1' post='304936' date='Oct 12 2008, 06:14 PM']Hi there, How well does this combo handle low B, and high volume? Im looking for a small amp for pit work and rehearsals. I use an Overwater 6... Would you be able to courier it? Do you have any actual pictures of your combo. Could be extremely very interested!!!! I will be in touch tomorrow with some confirmation if you could describe the above to me? Cheers!! Best wishes, Matt [/quote] Hi Matt, The honest answer is that I've never played a 5 through it so can't be 100% sure how it would work with a low B at high volume. I did find a review from a 5 string player on TalkBass: GIG --- Small/medium room with high, raised wooden stage, fully enclosed on both sides. Much like an old high school auditorium or community theater. In this case, a Moose Lodge. I play this room almost every month and have for years. I\'m VERY familiar with its sonic characteristics (i.e. it\'s favorable for bass and adds some low-end given the \"reflex\" factor of the stage) RIG --- Hanewinckel Vintage fretless 5 with graphite neck and Hanewinckel Vintage Retro 4. Both basses feature Bart pups and 3-band bart preamps. Jacked into the combo with D\'Addario Planet Waves cable, no effects. SOUND ------- Tight and clear. Low-end was not massive (this is a single 10, folks) but it offered a satisfying thump, even on the low B of the fretless. Didn\'t vibrate the stage much, of course. How could it? What it did do, however, is sound balanced and even throughout the frequency spectrum. The highs were especially clean and free of harshness. Upper register soloing was rendered with at times astonishing accuracy. This was very noticeable on the fretted 4. I had the output on this little demon set on 4 and NEVER turned up either bass past about 3/4! Plenty of headroom and tone was very consistent. I did notice a somewhat strained sound when I dug in a bit but it seemed natural and a result of the bass and not the amp. I can\'t wait to try this on a jazz gig with my 1946 Kay upright! COMPARISONS -------------- This is tough because I\'ve never played through a combo amp this small that was even close to being in its class! A single Wizzy with the Walter Woods Ultra or EA iamp 800, for instance, is easily as portable and superior in every way but we\'re talking a LOT more money. SUMMARY --------- If you want the ultimate small combo that sounds huge for its size, look around for one of these. It\'s really nothing short of amazing. I got very lucky when I found mine and it was in near mint condition too. Obviously, this combo won\'t get the job done on every gig. But for the small room, low to moderate volume outings, I can\'t imagine anything better, especially if you seek clarity and uncolored sound. I also took some pics The one of the strap is to show that it's about the only part showing any wear. I did have a problem with an earlier one of these and wrote to Euphonic in the States about it - they sent me a replacement for free

Had some interest but no firm offers yet so still available

Very nice, similar to my 4 string Sadowsky and and the 5 that's sitting on EBay with a minimum asking price of £2,200!

Can't beat Mr Hunt for a straight dealer on his basses & gear - I'm more than happy to vouch for him & when it comes to Warwicks he really knows his stuff

Now traded

Wow, only just spotted this, I tend to bypass 6 stringers up for sale as I can barely master 4 but I love the look of this baby
